9 month old wakes up every night at same time

[mybabyraff]

Hello, my 9 month old was sleeping all night in his cot a few weeks ago, then suddenly he wakes up between 2-3 am every single night screaming and will not go back until he's in bed with me. He's had 2 teeth come through but I don't think it's that. I have tried rubbing teething powder on his gums but he still screams. Does anyone know what this could be ! Is it just habit now? I really want to get him back to sleeping through xx

Is he hungry or just wanting physical contact. I remember reading about s sleep regression around 8-10 months, have you heard about that? Actually, it's all coming back to me now! DD definitely had much worse sleep around that age! No tips I'm afraid, other than do what you need to do to sleep and give your baby what he needs. DD co-slept, then eventually would fall asleep with a long cuddle but wake in the night and one of us whould sleep in her bed until morning. One day we tried doing bedtime and then saying goodnight and leaving her and she's been fine with that ever since. Falls asleep by herself and sleep through the night. My point being, we did what we needed to do and gave her what she needed, none of us missed loads of sleep, no sleep training and now she sleeps perfectly. She'll be 2 in a few weeks.

If it's the same time every night you could try the 3 night wake up. You set your alarm to wake her up half an hour before the time she's currently waking nightly. Then settle her back to sleep. Do it for 3 consecutive nights. It can help reset their body clock. A doctor friend of mine with 4 boys swore by it and I tried it for my youngest and it worked well. No feeding at all - but he did have a dummy if that makes any difference .
